$SOON
👍👍
is the native token of the Solana Optimistic Network, a modular execution layer combining Solana’s Sealevel Virtual Machine (SVM) with Ethereum-style optimistic rollups. This hybrid model delivers parallel transaction processing, high throughput, and low latency, while allowing developers to launch custom SOON Chains with shared security and interoperability.
Tokenomics: Total supply is 1B SOON, with ~235–238M in circulation (Aug 2025). Allocation: 51% community, 25% ecosystem, 8% airdrop/liquidity, 6% treasury, 10% team (multi-year vesting). Inflation is ~3% annually, offset by partial fee burns. SOON powers gas fees, staking rewards, governance, and ecosystem incentives.
Market: Price hovers around $0.147–$0.15 USDT, market cap ~$34–35M, FDV ~$142M, 24h volume ~$2.8–3M. Listed on Bitget, MEXC, KuCoin, Gate, HTX, and CoinEx AMM pools (50% fee share for LPs).
Milestones: Mainnet launched May 19, 2025, with 80M SOON airdrop. Secured $5M funding from Jump Crypto and Amber Group. Integrated zero-knowledge proofs (Boundless) and launched soonBase Mainnet with EigenDA. Roadmap includes more SOON Chains, cross-chain bridges, and Layer-3 capabilities.
Risks: 2026 private-sale token unlock could create sell pressure; liquidity fragmentation across exchanges; SVM-specific developer learning curve; evolving regulation.
Outlook: With Solana’s speed, modular scaling, and strong backers, SOON could grow rapidly if developer adoption and staking participation increase, though early-stage volatility remains high.
